Olympic High School is a secondary school located in Bremerton, Washington, United States. It is one of six secondary schools in the Central Kitsap School District. OHS educates grades 9–12. Course offerings include several Advanced Placement courses, a college in the High School program in partnership with Central Washington University, and an advanced Career and Technical Education program called Project Lead the Way. The school also offers students programs in vocal and instrumental music, and Sports medicine.
In 2016, voters within the Central Kitsap School District passed a bond for $220 million towards renovations within the district's schools. This allowed the school to begin a major modernization project. During phase one, the center of the building was demolished, with a two-story building constructed in its place. The addition included career and technical classrooms, an updated library, an auditorium and commons areas. On January 28, 2019, the first phase of renovations was completed, and the school hosted a grand re-opening. In January of 2020, plans were made to begin the second phase of renovations, but progress was halted multiple times. In March of 2020, the spread of Covid-19 caused the United States to go into a state of lockdown. This affected students, teachers, and workers at Olympic High School, slowing the progress of renovations dramatically. In April of 2021, two more setbacks occurred: A contractor bumped into a faulty pipe, causing a leak and major water damage to the gymnasium, leading to the replacement of the gym floors only partially covered by insurance. The second setback was the discovery of asbestos in the flooring of the school's locker rooms.
The school's main gym is also the home venue for the Kitsap Admirals of the American Basketball Association and International Basketball League.
